POSCO Gwangyang Steelworks (Director Lee Jin-su) announced that it will hold the ‘POSCO 55th Anniversary Concert’ on April 21 at Baegun Art Hall in Geumho-dong, Gwangyang City.

Since opening Baegun Art Hall in 1992 to provide Gwangyang citizens and employees with opportunities for diverse cultural experiences and emotional enrichment, Gwangyang Steelworks has offered high-quality concerts, plays, musicals, dance, traditional Korean music, and various other performances and films free of charge.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, the high-quality cultural content previously offered to neighbors was temporarily suspended from 2020, but resumed this year as quarantine guidelines were eased.

This performance, held in a venue with approximately 800 seats, will feature one of South Korea’s representative singers, ‘Park Sang-min,’ in a solo concert format.

In particular, singer Park Sang-min’s donation amount to neighbors reaching 4 billion KRW aligns closely with the values of Gwangyang Steelworks, which actively practices the corporate citizenship management philosophy, making this concert even more meaningful.

Based on Park Sang-min’s unique husky voice, the concert is expected to showcase a variety of rock and country music genres and engage with the citizens of Gwangyang.

The performance will last about 1 hour and 30 minutes, and he plans to sing various hit songs such as ▲Sunflower ▲Goodbye, Weapons ▲Plea ▲Mediterranean, among others.

Two free tickets per person will be provided by lottery to applicants, and selected winners will be individually notified via text message after 10 a.m. on the 18th.

On the day of the event, entry to Baegun Art Hall will be allowed from 7 p.m. after verifying invitation tickets at the entrance, and viewing is permitted for middle school students and older.

Meanwhile, Gwangyang Steelworks remodeled Baegun Art Hall in 2019 and plans to operate it as a complex cultural space for citizens through various cultural performances and film screenings.
